Thomas Muller said his new extension with Bayern Munich shows "you don't leave FC Bayern, even when England offers a lot."

Muller had been linked to a major move to Manchester United last summer.

Speaking to reporters at Bayern's training camp in Qatar, Muller said: "It set a signal that you don't leave FC Bayern even when England offers a lot with all the TV money.

"It was a statement from me and the club that we stand together, feel great together and pursue goals together."

Muller was born in Bavaria and praised his club as "more than just an employer" and said of the quality of life in Munich: "Not everyone can offer that."
